Buying 2nd car, help!
 
Hey everyone, I'm in the process of buying a 2nd car to accompany my Z. I've narrowed my choices down to the 2009 WRX, the G8 GT, and the Genesis Coupe V6.

Any insight as to what one I should choose and why? I've test driven all 3 and I was equally impressed with all of them in their own way.

Thanks for the help.

The G8 GT has gotten many fantastic reviews (GM naysayers beware), and many were left scratching their head as to why it simply wasn't selling. The conclusion most came to was the sheer lack of advertising done for it. The interior is nice (galaxy's ahead of GM's usual standards), the motors are rock solid. I'd go with that personally.

The WRX is a decent car, but you might want to look into Motor Trends extended test, seeing as they had some complaints about it. I'd just get an older used WRX if I ever got one.

The Genesis Coupe just isn't for me, although I'm sure it'd be a solid buy. If I got it, I'd probably just get the turbo 4.

Well if I remember correctly the G8 is really just a Holden, badged as a Pontiac for the American market. Nice cars, with the right exhaust they sound mean as hell.

If it's a second car it would be good to get one with 4 doors that can seat more than 2 IMO. So maybe the WRX? or Evo X?

I'd go with the WRX so you have AWD if the weather is bad.

out of the three you put down, I agree with Tin, go for the wrx. Easily modded, awd, still would be fun, 4 doors so practical. G8 would be the runner up for me, and personally I wouldn't be interested in the genesis at all, but again that's just me.:twocents:

what about a 2008 RR evo X, would look really nice next to your Z, plus most of the mods are already done for you. its a great canyon carver!


think about it!

Great car and you better get it in BLACK OR WHITE!
